Do you pay for your prescriptions?
35 Answers
I posted this earlier, but it appears to have disappeared into cyberspace, so .....
Do you pay for your prescriptions, or are you exempt from payment? A lot of folk are exempt, but I'm not, so I have bought a pre-paid yearly card. I pay just over ten quid a month and that covers everything.
A good deal when you consider it's over seven quid for one item!

I don't pay for my prescriptions thankfully,with the amount of stuff I have to get monthly for my illness it would cost me around �40.00 each time.I would get a pre-payment certificate in that situation for definite though!
I was told by a pharmacist that in many situations it would be cheaper for folks to buy the medicines outright (if they could) as they cost nowhere near the prescription charge.

My husband doesn't pay either, funny, because of diabetes.
Hey daffy, I didn't know that. I thought you got them at a lot less than they actually cost.
Here ya go whiffs, and sqad ....... LOL LOL
Dot, are there any outward signs that you have an underactive thyroid?
Red, wish I was a bit more outspoken re discounts. My sis is embarrassing - she'll argue about anything, if she thinks she might get it a bit cheaper.

Qualification for free prescriptions based on illness depends on whether the illness is life threatening and will/could result in sudden death without the medication.Depression meds and painkillers don't count.I have no idea about blood pressure meds though as maybe the condition can be controlled with diet changes or something.
Mrs Chappie it isn't a disease that just appears, it creeps up on you symptoms wise over a long period and when you feel you can't get up cos you are so tired and when your back aches 24/7 and you just want to sleep all day, but you're only 27 years old, that's when you should get tested.
i was actually advised to have the test after my younger sister was diagnosed with Lupus. over the years i have learnt that some of the symptoms are weight fluctuation, dry skin on the feet, aching limbs. but the medication stabalising most things i think.
